Split Airport transport pricing is clear and fairly consistent across providers. The airport bus has a fixed fare, taxis use metered rates with a fixed airport premium, and pre-booked transfers are confirmed at booking. Here is what you should expect to pay to the most common destinations.
To Split city center / Old Town (24 km)
- Bus line 37: 5 EUR per person. Drops off at Split bus terminal near the ferry port.
- Airport taxi: 35-50 EUR. Metered with a fixed airport starting rate.
- Pre-booked transfer: 30-50 EUR.
To Trogir (6 km)
- Airport taxi: 10-15 EUR. One of the shortest and cheapest airport-to-destination routes in Croatia.
- Pre-booked transfer: 15-25 EUR.
To Kaštela / Solin (10-15 km)

- Pre-booked transfer: 18-28 EUR.

- Airport taxi: 45-65 EUR.

To Split ferry terminal / Hvar ferry (26 km)
- Airport taxi: 35-50 EUR to the appropriate ferry terminal.
- Pre-booked transfer: 30-50 EUR.
To Šibenik (80 km)

What affects the price
Group size matters for the bus. At 5 EUR per person, a couple pays 10 EUR; a family of four pays 20 EUR — still much cheaper than a taxi, but the bus drops you at the terminal, not your door.
Distance is the primary cost driver for taxis and transfers. Trogir being 6 km versus Split being 24 km makes a very large price difference.
Time of day has minimal impact on standard airport routes. Pre-booked transfers for late-night arrivals may carry a small surcharge but this is typically modest.
Vehicle size affects transfer pricing. Larger vehicles for groups of five or more or for passengers with extra luggage cost 10-20 EUR more than a standard sedan.
Best value by situation
Budget solo traveler to Split: Bus line 37 (5 EUR). Couple to Split center: Bus (10 EUR total) is cheapest; a transfer (30-50 EUR) gives direct hotel drop-off. Family of four to Split: Transfer or taxi (35-50 EUR total, comparable to 20 EUR bus fare once you factor in a second taxi from the bus terminal). Going to Trogir: Taxi (10-15 EUR) — best value in the area, barely worth comparing alternatives. Going to Makarska or Omiš: Transfer only realistic option.
